Dynamical Systems An Introduction

From the reviews:

“The volume is organized into eight chapters, with the first introductory chapter briefly summarizing the contents of the remaining chapters. … the book does cover the topic of dynamical systems thoroughly and from both the discrete dynamics and the continuous dynamics points of view, including topologic and symbolic dynamics and ergodic theory. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers/faculty.” (M. D. Sanford, Choice, Vol. 51 (3), November, 2013)

“This book is an introductory text to the modern theory of dynamical systems, with particular focus on discrete time systems. It is written as a text book for undergraduate or beginning graduate courses. The book is almost self contained: it includes all the definitions, with examples, and the proofs of the presented results, as well as the majority of the tools in the proofs. The last section of each chapter consists of a list of exercises.” (Pau Martin de la Torre, zbMATH, Vol. 1269, 2013)
